I'm running Audacity (the latest), I like to record what you hear through this program. it has been always working fine. Now getting error message 9985 (device unavailable)? Everything is set to MME 16 bit 44100, I recorded something everything fine, tried again and got this error. I read try setting everything to 48100, i did and it worked but after that recording it went back to unavailable. So set back to 44100 and unavailable. How is it changing that fast? Like 5 min... Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks This is so frustrating lol Xfi Extreme Music Danial K.4.0 Drivers Windows 10 64 bit
I've been using them and they have been fine since January, this just started a week ago! What are u talking about exactly?
It was working fine...at first I was recording from my turntable had to tweak in Audacity a few things and it recorded amazing. Then last week switching things back to mostly default. Then i set up for what u hear recording and started getting the error message, I finally got to record one thing, then 5 min later it's back to error 9985. The only other thing i did, I read was to go into the services.msc then Windows Audio Endpoint Builder, then click Restart. The follow the on-screen instructions. after that i had a static sound coming from speakers, it went away, so obviously didn't work, but now still get error. It seems if you get it to work 5 min later changes back!
Don't mind them... Have you tried reinstalling the drivers? I don't know maybe try going back to a restore point when it last worked?
I went into it this morning and all of a sudden everything is fine for what u hear, just doesn't make no sense! I was thinking of reinstalling...but let's see how it goes. See what I mean everything is fine now....no sense Cheers
Sounds to me like the mic was used by another application. Which could be discord, uplay, steam ... whatever
